If you’re thinking of updating your bedroom in 2025, take note: interior design trends have shifted significantly — and that includes bedding colors that will be trending, and especially those that are going completely out of style.
The shift in bedding colors reflects a new lifestyle where people seek balance, coziness, sophistication, and connection with nature.

According to interior design experts, stylists, and international trend reports, some colors that have been popular in recent years are now being replaced by more modern, organic, and welcoming palettes.
Overly cool, artificial, and saturated tones are fading away.
Pure gray, which dominated interiors for nearly a decade, is one of the first to go — it’s now seen as impersonal and even gloomy in spaces meant to feel cozy, like the bedroom. In its place, warm neutrals like sand, beige, clay, and natural linen are rising, bringing visual comfort and a sophisticated, soothing aesthetic.
Another color falling out of fashion in 2025 is petrol blue
While it was a favorite in recent years due to its elegance, it’s now being swapped for softer, earthier tones like grayish blue, washed blue, and sage green — colors that bring freshness and offer a more organic, relaxing atmosphere aligned with the desire for wellness at home.
Bright yellow
Especially the mustard tone popular between 2019 and 2022 is losing popularity. It’s being replaced by softer, more sophisticated versions like butter yellow, cream, and buttery tones that feel lighter, calmer, and brighter without straining the eyes.
Very dark shades like pure black or deep graphite
Previously used to create contrast and dramatic interiors, these are now being avoided — especially in bedding — as they disrupt the restful, gentle atmosphere we seek in the bedroom. Instead, soft charcoal, off-black (black with a gray undertone), and warm dark browns offer a more modern and cozy alternative.
Neon green and other fluorescent tones
These bold tones used in modern and daring decors are completely out of fashion in 2025. People are turning away from anything overly artificial or visually exhausting. In their place, soft greens like olive, sage, and moss green are taking center stage for their calming effect and their ability to connect us to nature.
Millennial pink
That soft pink shade that was hugely popular in the past decade is also being phased out in favor of more mature and refined variations like dusty pink, rosy nude, rosy terracotta, and even mauve — all offering similar softness but with a more current and elegant touch.
These changes are not just aesthetic — they also reflect a shift in behavior. After years of turmoil, overstimulation, and digital overload, the trend in home decor — especially in bedding — is to seek colors that bring calm, sensory comfort, and emotional well-being. Natural, organic, earthy, and neutral tones are becoming more popular as they create cozy, minimalist, and elegant environments without sacrificing warmth.
So, if you’re updating your bedroom in 2025, avoid bedding in pure gray, petrol blue, mustard yellow, pure black, neon green, and millennial pink. Instead, opt for shades like sand, beige, linen, sage green, grayish blue, buttery yellow, terracotta, rosy nude, and mauve. These are the colors that will define the most beautiful, modern, and sophisticated bedrooms of the year — and they’ll promote relaxation and well-being, exactly what we all want in a restful space.
